MTV Networks is dipping their hand into the pool of reality and unscriptedness, developing no less than nine new shows. Maybe I'm just old, but I remember turning on MTV to watch music videos and actually seeing them. The list of shows after the jump.- Yo Mamma is a reality based series from Wilmer Valderama where really good trash-talking gets you cash.
- Omarion focuses on an R&B artist who wants to be the next P. Diddy and is so committed to that goal, he has followed P.Diddy's footsteps, all the way to creating his own recording label.
- Homewrecker is about people with a grudge - and how they can use that grudge to wreck someone's house, in standard MTV/Punk'd style.
- 8th & Ocean trains its camera on women who are trying to become high end fashion models and living in Miami Beach
- Welcome to Crunkville is a contest where the participants audition with the hopes of winning a stay at the home of the Atlanta based The Ying Yang Twins.
- There and Back is about Ashley Angel, former O-Town singer, who is trying to forge a comeback.
- Beyond Normal follows MTV Newser Gideon Yago who steps in to help various people who's lives have been derailed by crisis.
- Mr. Rooney's Barbershop is an upclose and personal look at a Queens NY barbershop. But not your ordinary barbershop. Here, in between cuts, the local barbers are scouting for new hip-hop talent.
- Ten Years Later is the only scripted series in the bunch, based on the true story of Jake Fogelnest. Fogelnest was a child star on a cable show called Squirt TV. Now that he's all grown up, the question is, what now?
